A Mountain Crumbles!

I almost can't believe I'm writing this for the waiting seems to never end.  We received word today that our agency has been chosen by IBESR (Haiti's Social Services)!!  We are so thrilled and so thankful to the Lord for crumbling this mountain!  I have been holding this in since 3:30 this afternoon because I wanted to tell Nate first.  I felt it necessary because I cannot imagine walking this journey with any one else.....he has been so amazing, so supportive of my roller coaster feelings, my rock. My absolute best friend and has shepherded my heart when I waiver spiritually by always pointing me to my Saviour.  God has richly blessed me with this man. 

There is still a long road ahead.   Now we wait for a referral.  Once we get one and accept it we will travel probably within the month of the referral (not exactly sure on this one but it sounds right).  Then we come home, without our child :(, and wait for him to move out of IBESR.  This process could take months and months, it just depends on his situation and paperwork and such.  Every case is different so it is so hard to predict the outcome.  For tonight, however, we celebrate this victory and dance on top of the mountain's remains and thank our Heavenly Father.

Keep those prayers coming!  Thank you.
